2024 Summer Season Preserving Workshops

Summer is here - Hoorah! Lots of possibilities and we will we creating another Toolkit this Season, working with strawberries - some very surprising ideas here - and making jam and studying cucumbers.

There are so many aspects of preserving buried deep in the annals of time that haven't seen the light of day for a very long time. I find these discoveries particularly exciting - to think that they have been hiding there in plain sight all along waiting to be rediscovered. From that process it is logical to explore other plants and fruits in different ways, who knows what we will unearth.

Our Handmade and Holistic Workshop this Season will be working with Roses - our Rose Workshop making jellies and truffles and other delicious preserves was one of the most interesting I think. The Holistic Workshop will similarly be immersed in petals and oils and some luscious treats will emmerge.

Keep up with the gardening - you will thank me later when you are picking your own tomatoes.
